Event Highlights

Duke Sven Gunnarson is our new Crown Prince! Inspired by his lady, Duchess Signy Oksendahl, Duke Sven was victorious in the final round over Sir Hathawolf Spearbreaker who was fighting for Lady Kendra the Traveller. It was Duke Sven's fourth victory in the An Tirian Crown lists moving him into elite company with Duke Thorin Njallson (6 reigns) and Duke Davin Stronghand (4 reigns). An Tirians Duke James Greyhelm, Duke Trelon of the Wood, and Duke Uther Schiemann der Hunt also have at least four reigns, but those reigns were not in An Tir.

Archos Burning Bear won the Kingdom Protector tournament to become the first person in An Tir history to serve as Kingdom Protector twice.

HL Khaidu Naranaimorin became the premiere Equestrian Champion of An Tir.

Squires' Tournament Results

We had 68 fighters in the list this time.

The Chivalry prize went to Aziz, Squire to Faris Tariq Abu Zayd. Most Wins (53) went to Aleksii, Squire to Sir Loehtgar. Aleksii also had the most fights (56); however, since squires can only win one of the prizes, Most Fights was awarded to Ariel de Courteny, Squire to Lady Bolverk, who had the second highest total with 46 fights.

Thanks also to those who donated prizes - Baroness Saewynn, HL Shaughnessy and Greydragon!

The individual results are listed below. My apologies for any strange formatting - my email program seems to have problems with this. If you have any questions, please let me know.
